Beyond the natural competition that exists between brands that cover the same market, the common goal of massifying electromobility and contributing to the environment has prompted them to work in the same direction<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the case of Blink Charging<\/strong> and ChargePoint<\/strong>, companies that will launch chargers for electric vehicles with Tesla<\/strong>‘s charging connector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a report by Reuters <\/strong>news agency, Blink, ChargePoint and Tritium<\/strong> reported that they will offer chargers with Tesla<\/strong>‘s connector, to the detriment of the standard Combined Charging System<\/strong> (CCS) connector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All in the Same Direction<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

General Motors<\/strong> (GM), one of the largest U.S. automakers, announced that it would join Ford <\/strong>in adopting the North American Charging Standard<\/strong> (NACS) port previously owned by Tesla<\/strong>, which will dominate 60% of the electric vehicle market in the country with the partnerships<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to specialists in the field, Tesla<\/strong>‘s NACS <\/strong>is more compact and lighter, making it easier for automakers to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company EVgo<\/strong>, which already offered Tesla <\/strong>connectors in 2020, said in a statement that it will expand its NACS connectors to its fast-charging network in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ChargePoint<\/strong>, meanwhile, said it will introduce a NACS <\/strong>connector option for its products and upgrades for chargers already in service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Australia-based Tritium <\/strong>revealed that it will add the NACS <\/strong>connector to its chargers in the U.S. and other markets that choose to adopt it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
